We apply the Gamow shell model to study 25−31 F isotopes. As both inter-nucleon correlations and continuum coupling are properly treated therein, the structure shape of 31 F at large distance can be analyzed precisely. For this, one-nucleon densities, root-mean square radii and correlation densities are calculated in neutron-rich fluorine isotopes. It is then suggested that 31 F exhibits a two-neutron halo structure, built from both continuum coupling and nucleon-nucleon correlations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
